I took this close up so you can see the lines of the paper I stamped on and the shimmer of it too! It is from Paper Temptress - most awesome paper I have found yet - she has a ton to choose from and it is all to die for!

This is a stamp from the Mystic Fairy set by Elemental Doodles. This is a diverse set with several "main" images to choose from. I shared the fairy with you earlier and this is the floral spray. Adding just a touch of color to the flowers and leaves makes for a great presentation.

I have a hard time with manly cards so this one I found a sticker that said "To the Special Man In My Life" and added it to the front under the flowers. I used burgundy/red colors for it and inside it says "The Most Beautiful View Is The One I Share With You." I am not usually a sticker person but that is what seemed to fit the card as I was assembling it. The ribbon is awesome as it is burgundy with a black edge and just enough silver in the stripe to bring out the shimmer of the paper. I also stamped on the card base itself with one of the other stamps in the Mystic Fairy set - essentially making my own background paper!

Wow, I was just searching the groups and linked here to "critique" your cards per your request and found this....what can I say, I love it!! Honestly though even though it uses my favorite cardstock the laser silver lustre!! I wouldn't change anything!!
